BMR stands for Basal metabolic RateIt is also called the resting metabolic rate and is the amount of energy you expend in a normal resting state at normal temperature.It is used to calculate your calorific expenditure
Organs such as the liver, brain, and heart contribute the most to resting metabolic needs due to their high metabolic activity. These organs require a significant amount of energy to perform essential functions even when the body is at rest. Additionally, muscle tissue also plays a role in resting metabolism as it accounts for a higher percentage of overall body mass.
RMR stands for resting metabolic rate.it is the rate at which we burn energy or calories when resting. This helps fulfill the basic requirements of the body to function optimally
The body's resting rate of energy expenditure is known as the basal metabolic rate (BMR). BMR represents the energy required to maintain basic physiological functions while at rest, such as breathing, circulating blood, and regulating body temperature. It accounts for the largest portion of total daily energy expenditure.
Gender, age and body size and type
Gender, age, and body shapes/sizes can affect a person's metabolic rate. ***Apex: All of the above
yes
The higher your resting metabolic rate is, the more calories your body burns while at rest. So, while you sit or sleep you could be burning calories as if you were exercising.
Basal metabolic rate (BMR), and the closely related resting metabolic rate (RMR), is the rateof energy expenditure by humans and other animals at rest, and is measured in kJ per hour per kg body mass.
Gender, age and body size and type
Yes, that's correct. 1.0 MET (metabolic equivalent) is defined as the resting metabolic rate, which is the amount of oxygen consumed by the body at rest. This value represents the baseline for measuring the metabolic cost of various physical activities, with activities with higher MET values requiring more oxygen and energy expenditure.
It is a matter of doing the right adjustments!!! Adults have higher resting metabolic rates (RMR) when compared to children, this is solely based on their greater body-weight. If you adjust RMR per Kg body-weight children will have higher resting metabolic rates. Now it gets tricky, children also have a greater surface area to mass ratio. If we adjust now for surface area the RMR in children and adults become similar. The same principle accounts for the different RMRs in mice and elephants (Kleibers law)!
